Sakura Day @ The Racecourse

Thanks Singapore Turf Club for having us 

at the annual Sakura Day @ The Racecourse on 5 Oct 2014!

We had a great time dinning together and also discussing on which are the winning horses.

 

The event was also in conjunction with the Panasonic Kranji Mile. The Panasonic Kranji Mile is the first Leg of the Singapore Triple Crown Series, which includes the Raffles Cup on 26 October 2014 and will culminate with the running of the Longines Singapore Gold Cup on 16 November 2014.

Mr Simon Leong, Vice President of Corporate Services, Singapore Turf Club said, “The Club has enjoyed this strategic partnership with Panasonic, who over the years has offered invaluable racing experiences for our patrons through the provision of innovative technology systems at our racecourse and premises.

“There is no better way to kick-start the Singapore Triple Crown Series than Sakura Day; with a deck of Japanese-themed activities to celebrate the vibrancy of the culture and coinciding with Panasonic’s sponsorship of the Group 1 feature race.  We hope that the guests will enjoy the complete experience and look forward to the other two upcoming Legs for the Series.”

Mr Wilfred Wee, Managing Director, Panasonic Systems Asia Pacific, commented, "Ever since our first foray into sponsorship with Singapore Turf Club, Panasonic has taken great pride in its associations with the world of sport and entertainment.  As such, the annual Kranji Mile represents a perfect partnership for Panasonic.  Whilst the Singapore Turf Club recognises the best quality experience at the races, Panasonic brings the best possible system solutions that combine quality and innovation to our valued customers in the business-to-business field.”
